Sundays are meant for reading! Today, I have been catching up on a couple of different books that I had partially read, including last month’s Read with Ariesgrl book. Jagger was very needy today. He wanted one-on-one attention and play time, so my reading was spotty today.

July 1st is here!!! This means one thing for my family… Fireworks. As of yesterday, we are on 24hrs Firework Protocol. That means pillow forts, opera music and extra meds for Ozzy. Hopefully we will survive this weekend with flying red, white and blue colors!!! 🙂

This month’s book for Read with Ariesgrl is… The Cuckoo’s Calling by Robert Galbraith. If you are in the mood of solving a crime, join me this month by reading 1.5 chapters a day and we will discuss it here, weekly.

Happy Memorial Day! Thank you to all those who lost their lives, defending our freedoms.

Last month’s Read with Ariesgrl was a bit of a disappointment, thanks to Barnes and Noble not sharing the final chapter in their serial read selection. For the month of June, I decided to dive into my never-ending wish list to find a good suspense/mystery read. I have narrowed it down to The Templar Legacy by Steve Berry and Cuckoo’s Calling by Robert Galbraith. Both titles are the first in a series and each have their own unique spin on suspense. We have a couple of days left before June 1st, to decide. So which one of these titles sounds like a fun June read to you?

It seems that this month’s serial read (available through the Barnes and Noble app) ended rather quickly. Normally readers get one (or more) chapters a day, with a couple of days at the end of the month, to catch up, but this month’s story ended on the twentieth. Despite the fact that the main characters wrapped up their stories, I was left hanging. I felt the ending to Redemption Bay by RaeAnne Thayne, was very rushed. Well, it turns out that Barnes and Noble failed to give us the Epilogue. WHAT?!?!?!

So I suggest to all of you, who are reading this book with me, to go to your nearest Used Bookstore and/or Library and pick up the book to read the final chapter. Yes, I still think the overall ending was rushed, but at least now I feel better knowing how the future will treat these characters that I have grown to like.

What are your thoughts on this book? Do you have any suggestions for next month’s selection?

So we are halfway through the month, which means we are halfway through Redemption Bay by RaeAnne Thayne. This has been a sweet story and I am thoroughly enjoying the setting. It seems peaceful and homey. What do you think?

This month’s Read with Ariesgrl book will be the nook’s Serial Read selection for May. Each day, the nook app will provide one chapter from Redemption Bay by RaeAnne Thayne. This is the second book in the author’s romantic Haven Point series. I have not read anything by this author before, but I am looking forward to seeing what this book has to offer. Throughout the month, I will start discussion threads for us to share our thoughts!

This month’s Read with Ariesgrl book is the Free Serial Read on the Barnes and Noble app. This month’s selection is a thriller called Little Girl Lost by Brian McGilloway. So join me on Tuesdays and let’s see if we can solve this mystery.

How are you? Are you all as excited about September and the coming Fall, as I am? Last month, I chose Gone with the Wind as the Read with Ariesgrl. I didn’t get the chance to finish, nor did I get as far as I would have liked. So, the good news: This month’s Read with Ariesgrl will be continuing (or starting, if you want to) Gone with the Wind. The goal is to read 2 chapters each night. We can discuss, without spoilers, our thoughts on here each week.

Hello World!

My name is Nicole. I am an Aries, and an avid reader. I have always loved to read. Thanks to my Mom and my Grandmother, I was never in short supply of books. I would read whatever I could get my hands on. I have devised this blog to start sharing my thoughts and reviews on the amazing books in this vastly expanding world of literature. Here readers should be able to find some books they may know and new books to discover from each genre. Each category will be dedicated to a certain genre, so you will be able to click quickly to your favorites. My goal is to become a full-time book reviewer, and be able to discuss books with fellow readers, so feel free to leave comments and suggestions. But most importantly, please enjoy the world of books!
